If you don't know your router address, it is not possible to access its router setup page. The best way to find it is reading your router's manual.

Example: "linksys wrt54g filetype:pdf". If you find many results, you can narrow your search by adding the expression "site:xxxxxx.com". For example: "Asus RT-N66U filetype:pdf site:asus.com".

If you did not find the manual in Google search, you could try to type in the address bar of a web browser like, Chrome, Firefox, or Internet Explorer, one of these addresses below:
